Saturday night after church Babe took Peanut home while Honey and I made a Wal-Mart run. I called home for something and Babe sounded tense. When I asked what was up he blurted out "Twinkie's dead". WHAT? He was perfectly fine this morning, or was it yesterday morning? Either way what in the world! He was so upset that his baby was "in her room crying", he gets so angry when one of his girls is hurt or hurting.
We have no clue what went wrong with poor little Twinkie, he was such a sweetie and only about 6 months old!
So we went out this afternoon on a mission to get a new little pet for Peanut to cuddle with. What we came home with was something I swore I would never have and Babe just shook his head the entire time but knew he didn't have a leg to stand on since he does NOTHING to help in the animal arena!
So I would like to introduce our newest family member...Alice, yes from Twilight~my girls are addicted, the guinea pig!
Peanut and Alice
She makes the cutest little squeaking noise, I hope she's half the "rodent" ( I NEVER thought I would be this Mom) Twinkie was!
Twinkie~Was he not the sweetest little thing EVER?!!?

Oh, how sad. I hope that Peanut is able to make some fun new memories with Alice.
I. LOVE. ALICE!!
Shawn, I can't believe I'm saying this -- but she is SO cute. I may even hold her, I doubt it, but I may.
May little Twinkie Rest In Peace ...
Poor peanut :-( I'm glad she got a new rodent to love!
Hey Shawn,
Hope your daughter is doing better now that you brought her Alice. I had a guinea pig when I was a teacher. My kids have only had dogs and cats.
Anyway, the guinea pig's name was T.P. (teacher's pet). My class loved T.P.! I would let them get TP out of the cage at the end of the day. They couldn't wait. TP died during the summer....I was sad and when the former students asked I would have to explain it over and over again. I hope Alice has a long, happy life!
